Anyone had experience on Zoloft ?

Since taking it Feel like i just don’t give a Phuk about anything anymore , can’t tell if it’s a good or a bad thing tbh
brb haven’t met one vaxcel who doesn’t get defensive or mad when you tell them you didn’t get it.

No “vax” for HIV after 40 years of research. No vax for cancer after 100 years of research. No vax for the common cold and yet a virus mysteriously appears and Within 12 months a “vax” is found by 4 pharma companies all within 1 week and we are mandated to take it ….

That's normal, when you first start taking an SSRI your receptors are being reset and will eventually balance out; until then you should feel generally indifferent to things that emotionally impact you

They can treat a variety of symptoms, what were you prescribed for?

In all seriousness though... yes. And they can give you homicidal thoughts. Any antipsych SSRI or anti anxiety meds can. Unless you are borderline about to end it, I would do anything to not take them SRS.

Stay the FCK away from SSRI's, find a real way to deal with your depression. Also look up PSSD

That meme makes no sense in your context

Just because someone is on psychotropics doesn't mean the medication caused them to be homicidal



Homicidal thoughts aren't even a possible side effect; suicidal thoughts are in those with severe depression

They were very mentally disturbed, which is why they were being treated in the first place



The meme is implying mental illness is also a problem, not just gun access

Some weight gain is normal, 20lbs means you've been eating more, that's actually a good sign. Start controlling your calorie choices more


Call your prescribing physician and tell them what you've said here, your concerns. They'll either dial back the dose to 25mg or try something different. Most people have to try more than one kind to find what's right for them.

Don't quit cold turkey after 90+ days, you'll have rebound effects.

I will, thanks.

Btw Anxiolytics don't create homicidal thoughts either, they're all sedatives that suppress the central nervous system calming anyone down and helping to rationalize thoughts.

Don't ever mix them with other CNS depressants like alcohol or painkillers, it can slow your breathing to dangerous levels.

50mg is a typical therapeutic starting dose, he/she must've meant 100mg.

Call back and tell them you don't want help with the weight management, you should know how to manage macros being on this site, instead focus on your concern for the mood swings. Ask them to try a different medication if it keeps happening over the next month, and obviously contact them immediately if your depression suddenly worsens.

Not surprised, that's why no one intentionally abuses SSRI's, taken when not suffering from depression/anxiety will have an opposite effect on the brain. Am surprised you didn't get nauseated too.

yea it was a 10mg Lexapro (Escitalopram Oxalate).

i forgot to mention i had diahrea the first day too and couldn't eat for 2 days. Pupils were dilated so everyone thought I was on something. I actually called the poison control number and asked what I can do to feel normal again. He just said you should feel better in about 5 days because the stuff has a long half life. Thought about ending it. Worst experience ever. The crazy thing is I actually do have anxiety so this pill was supposed to help. Can't believe people are prescribed this
